Brilliant, give yourself a hearty pat on the back! You've made sense of the backdrop, it had me completely in a spin.
Can see  every detail now... well done!

Thanks, Paula  :)

It was such a lovely picture - it drew me to it.

I wasn't sure if the backdrop was a raging sea or a windswept mountain(given the rifle behind her) but I saw waves rather than heather  ;D


Very odd to have a young girl pose in front of a gun though  :-\

Think I'll give my eyes a rest now!

Probably used the rifle to shoot the what ever that skin was on, Gadget.

It is a crackin' good picture though, I'm surprised there weren't more restores.
